Quote of the Show:

When it comes to using Amazon DSP and boosting sales as a growing brand, I typically don’t recommend running DSP on products with fewer than 100 reviews or anywhere less than four stars. This is because with DSP, you’re charged at a CPM basis, meaning you pay for every 1000 impressions, regardless of clicks. In the PPC world, reviews play a crucial role in click-through and conversion rates. If potential customers are dissuaded by low review counts and don’t click on your product, you still get an impression without paying anything. Within the DSP, charges occur when people see your ad. So, to ensure success, you need to be well-prepared. Once you’re properly set up, Amazon DSP can become an incredibly powerful lever for your brand’s growth.
